Well, I know where I'm going to take my family for their holiday this year...

I've been itching to go there for ages!

As I said to my significant other: "Darling, we may not have Paris... but at least we'll always have Sandy Balls."

Hiya Cassandrova

They advertise this place on local radio where I live. It sounds like a comedy sketch.

Sorry I don't have a link.

Sandy Balls - I suppose the very inanity of the name makes a statement about brand awareness.

I'd love to hear one of their ads. Heh!

Also love the button at the bottom of the web page that suggests that you 'Explore Sandy Balls'.

Hello Cassandrova:

The state of Pensylvania has communities named Blue Ball and Intercourse in "Pennsylvania Dutch Country" (Amish) tourist areas.

Oddly enough, Philbert, I was visiting the US around ten years ago and me and my girlfriend took a road trip up to Pennsylvania to go antique hunting (there's a famous road - the name of which I've forgotten - which has a whole bunch of antique malls along it).

Anyway, I was navigating and started reeling off names like Blue Ball and Intercourse on the map - another good one I remember was Reamstown. My girlfriend was convinced I was just making up these names! LOL

We also spent a day at a really deranged theme park called Hersheyworld where all the workers dress up like chocolate bars. There's something really disturbing about being approached by a giant Reese's Peanut Butter Cup with legs.
